Ramadaan Mubarak

spirit level

You wouldn’t believe how hard it was to find an acceptably level surface in our home in order to make this picture work. It’s still not perfectly balanced, but I’m not anal enough to care.

Aller is my flavour-of-the-month font. It’s clean and is subtle in its playfulness. It’s available for free download from this danish site.

*I’ve just noticed that the word Quran is at the end of the second line. It should’ve been at the beginning of the third. Can’t edit without redoing the entire graphic. –> #1 bad designer habit:  deleting the psd file after a cursory glance at the finished artwork.*

    Ramadaan seems to be helping with the inspiration. Cool pic, I wouldn’t be able to tell if it was totally level or not anyway.
